Ying Zheng stayed in Qidi Palace for ten days.
During these ten days, Li Shui, Li Xin and Chun Yuyue quarreled and stumblingly finalized the ceremony of Fengchan Taishan.
Ten days later, the three finally sent the drafted charter to Ying Zheng's desk.
Ying Zheng took a quick look and agreed.
To be honest, this charter is a bit nondescript, in a way that has never been done before.
But Ying Zheng felt that this charter was in line with his requirements.
The scene is grand and can reflect the majesty of the emperor.
So Li Shui pretended to do some divination again, and finally persuaded Ying Zheng to hold a Zen ceremony ten days later.
During these ten days, all the courtiers were recharging their energy.
Only Li Shui and Li Xin were extremely busy.
They first announced one thing, the Zen Ceremony, and implemented a policy that combined an invitation system with a ticket system.
Those invited can visit for free. The rest of the people need to buy tickets.
After hearing the news, the courtiers all showed understanding smiles on their faces.
It's worthy of being banished to an immortal.
He even wants to make money during the Zen Ceremony, which is really awesome.
Later, Li Shui and Li Xin announced the list of invitees.
The list is surprisingly short.
The first is His Majesty.
The courtiers think this matter is nonsense. Why don't you invite His Majesty to the Zen ceremony? Does your Majesty need to spend money to buy tickets? This is simply unreasonable.
The second one is the banished immortal Huai Guzi.
The courtiers didn't say anything about this. After all, Huaiguzi had done this. If he had to spend money himself, it would be unreasonable.
The third one is Li Xin.
This is normal, after all, Li Xin and Huai Guzi are inseparable, working together, and each other will share half of any benefits. Now that the banished immortal has been included in the list, it would be much more reasonable for Li Xin to be included again.
The fourth one is Chunyu Yue.
You can guess this too. After all, Chun Yuyue was also one of the organizers of the Zen Ceremony. If Chun Yuyue was not invited, Chunyu Yue might not agree to this plan.
The fifth one is... there is no fifth one.
There were only four people invited.
The noses of the courtiers were almost crooked with anger.
Exiled Immortal, is it really that he is becoming more and more arrogant, and is his personal gain and fraud so obvious?
This is obviously to steal everyone's money.
After that, there are fares for different locations.
The fares vary according to the distance from the emperor.
The closest one is one million dollars. The next best thing is one hundred thousand dollars, and the next best thing is ten thousand dollars.
Ten thousand yuan is the cheapest ticket.
Moreover, only court officials can purchase items worth 100,000 yuan or more, and ordinary people cannot buy them.
As for those with tens of thousands of dollars, ordinary merchants and gentry can buy it, but they have to check three generations of their ancestors to see if they are good people.
Moreover, when these people are watching the sacrificial ceremony, they must stand on the outside and be strictly guarded by officers and soldiers.
It can be said that it is foolproof.
Seeing how thoughtful Li Shui and others were, the courtiers nodded in approval.
Li Si sighed and said, "Exalting the Immortal, I finally got it right for once."
But when he looked down, he immediately cursed: "Does this shameless person have any shame?"
It turns out, below is a detailed location map. According to the size of the official position, it was specified in detail which courtier should stand where.
Originally, there was no problem with this. It was convenient for the courtiers to find their positions, it was simple and easy, and the ceremony of conferring Zen would not be messed up.
But the key point is that the ticket price has just been announced.
This is equivalent to saying that Exiled Immortal has already calculated for you how much money each official should pay. When the time comes, you don’t have to hesitate whether you should buy a high-priced ticket to feast your eyes on it, or buy a low-priced ticket to listen and have fun.
The first person photographed was Li Si.
In other words, Li Si had to spend one million dollars to buy the ticket this time anyway.
Poor families are even worse off.
Li Si suddenly became extremely envious of Wang Wan.
Wang Wan stayed in Xianyang and did not need to participate in the Zen ceremony, which can be regarded as saving money.
Li Si thought about it and felt that His Majesty had already read this charter and His Majesty had already agreed to it. It was impossible to change it again.
In this case, just pay for it.
But...where can I get this million money?
If it were in Xianyang City, Li Si might be able to scrape together everything and scrape together the one million dollars.
But... this is Qidi. Where can I get this million money?
In the end, Li Si took the step: borrow money.
Whose money can I borrow? Of course he borrowed the money from the banished immortal.
Li Si walked to Li Shui's room.
He stretched out his hand to knock on the door, but felt extremely ashamed, and suddenly regretted that he should have just asked the servant to borrow the money.
As a result, just when he was hesitating, Li Shui's door opened.
It was Wujiao who opened the door.
After he saw Li Si, he was not surprised and said with a smile: "Master Tingwei, please come in."
Li Si said oh and walked in.
Li Shui was sitting on a chair with his eyes closed and concentrating. When he heard that Li Si was coming, he immediately stood up and invited Li Si to sit down very warmly.
Li Si said with some embarrassment: "The ticket price for this ceremony is a bit high."
Li Shui said: "Is it high?"
This is what I asked Wujiao.
Wu Jiao said: "It's not that high. The Zen Ceremony is your Majesty's communication with God. The closer you are to Your Majesty, the greater the possibility of feeling God."
"Except for Exiled Immortal, General Li, and Dr. Chunyu, Lord Tingwei is the person closest to His Majesty."
"Is it expensive to spend one million dollars to buy an opportunity to have close contact with God?"
Li Si: "..."
Damn it, if you tell me that, I feel like I'm taking advantage.
Li Si knew that in terms of eloquence, he could not argue with these two shameless people.
So he said bluntly: "I have no money."
Li Shui held out a box with a smile and said, "Just in time, there is one million dollars here."
Li Si said in confusion: "How can one million dollars be put into this small box?"
Li Shui said: "Why not? The contents in the box are equivalent to one million dollars."
Li Si said "oh" and took the box. When he opened it, there was only a piece of paper with a beautiful pattern printed on it and a number.
This is Lee's ticket.
Li Si was speechless: This... this thing is really worth a million dollars.
Li Shui smiled and took out another note. The note read: Tingwei Li Si borrowed one million yuan from Shangjun Courtyard.
Below is the year, month and day.
All that was left was Li Si's fingerprints.
Li Si's eyes widened: "What does this mean?"
Li Shui smiled and said, "This is an IOU."
Li Si chuckled: "The banishment of immortals is really prepared for a rainy day, and the preparations are really complete."
Li Shui said with a smile: "The purpose of this Immortal is to help you all solve your problems. Of course, I need to be more prepared. The service needs to be better. In this way, you all will feel at home. Isn't that great?" "
Li Si: "..."
What can you do if you want to borrow money and still feel at home? It's really baffling.
He hurriedly pressed his fingerprints and left.
…………
The Dongyi people are having a meeting again.
Lord Canghai was sitting in the upper seat. He looked at the Dongyi warriors, frowned slightly and said, "It's just an assassination of Qin. How could so many things happen?"
Vicissitudes sighed and said: "Originally it was very simple. We just had to ambush the emperor on his way, and then use a sledgehammer to knock him over with his car and his body. Who knows... now I’m going to buy a ticket.”
Cang Ding agreed: "I went to see it today. In order to prevent others from cheating on tickets, Banxian has made extremely careful arrangements. It is very difficult to pass through the layers of inspections and evade the fare to get in."
"But if we don't go in, we are thousands of miles away from the emperor. How can we assassinate him?"
Cang Haijun sighed: "But these tickets are too expensive. The cheapest one costs 10,000 yuan."
Cang Ding said: "That is also something we can't do anything about."
Lord Canghai remained silent.
He somewhat regretted assassinating Qin.
The ticket costs 10,000 yuan. This assassination operation may result in losses.
Logically speaking, Zhang Liang is a man of faith, and after successfully assassinating Qin, he should not default on his debts.
But it's not easy to figure out who should be credited with the ten thousand dollars.
It stands to reason that Zhang Liang should be found immediately, the two parties should have a talk, and then take action after a good discussion.
But...who knows where Zhang Liang is now?
This is a bit difficult to handle.
Finally, Cang Haijun thought for a while and said to Cang Ding: "If we spend this ten thousand money and let you buy the ticket, can you guarantee that the assassination of Qin will be successful?"
Cang Ding said: "What can't be guaranteed? As long as the Emperor of Qin's carriage passes in front of me, I will hit it with a hammer and ensure that it will be torn into pieces."
Cang Haijun nodded and analyzed: "Well, in this case, even if we fail to assassinate Qin, we will only lose 10,000 yuan."
"Dongyi is not rich, but we can still spend this ten thousand yuan without breaking our bones."
"But if the assassination of Qin succeeds, we will be the great heroes who cooperated with Mr. Zhang in the rebellion. Then we will really become famous. Maybe the entire Qi will be ours."
"Compare it like this. The risk of assassinating Qin is very small, but the rewards of assassinating Qin are great. You can do this."
The Dongyi people around him nodded in agreement.
In this room, Cang Sang, the only one with some intelligence, fell into deep thought: What the king said does make sense, but why do I always feel... something is wrong?
Is the risk of failing to assassinate Qin really that small? Wait, just in case Cang Dian's hammer goes down. Regardless of whether he killed the emperor or not, those Qin people will take revenge on us, right?
At that time, Mr. Zhang cannot quench his thirst with water from afar, so how can he help us?
Even if Mr. Zhang was able to organize something in Xianyang City in time, it was still thousands of miles away from Xianyang.
What if the Qin people leave a group of troops to kill us first and then go back to quell the chaos? It seems that there is still time.
Thinking of this, Cang Sang suddenly became afraid.
He said to Cang Haijun: "Your Majesty, I just thought that this matter is very inappropriate."
Then he expressed his concerns.
After Cang Haijun heard this, he was slightly stunned and thought to himself: This is quite a trouble.
But who is Aanghai-kun? That's a smart person. The title of Dongyi's No. 1 wise man definitely means that it is called in vain.
He smiled slightly, thinking about it.
He said to Cang Sang: "This matter is very easy."
He called Cang Ding again and said, "No matter whether you succeed in assassinating Qin or not, please don't make any announcement, especially don't reveal your true identity."
Cang Ding looked at Cang Haijun in confusion: "Your Majesty, why is this?"
Cang Haijun smiled slightly and said: "This is to avoid involving us Dongyi people."
Cang Ding was a little confused.
The two wise men, Cang Haijun and Cang Sang, spoke earnestly next to them.
Cang Ding, I finally know something.
He nodded and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely not let the people of Qin know that I am from Dongyi."
Cang Haijun nodded with satisfaction.
Cang Sang said: "The king is indeed wise. I am still far behind."
Cang Haijun chuckled and said: "After all, I am the leader of Dongyi. Naturally, I have to think further about some things. Don't be too discouraged, haha."
Later, Cang Haijun ordered people to notify all the clan members to collect money together.
This ten thousand yuan is distributed to each clan member.
Some tribesmen are relatively poor, so in order to meet their quota, they can only sell some of their most beloved things.
Such as a precious wolf skin, such as a pair of beautiful antlers.
In fact... Mr. Cang Hai is very rich himself, so there is absolutely no problem for him to spend these ten thousand dollars.
But Mr. Canghai decided to let everyone chip in.
Only in this way can the tribe be united. Let everyone feel that we are a family...
After quickly collecting enough money, Cang Ding and Cang Sang went to buy a ticket with the money.
When buying tickets, people around them always looked at the two of them up and down.
After all, their attire is quite special, and they look like barbarians at first glance.
The people of Qin are actually a little proud. After all, even the barbarians come to see Fengchan Taishan. This shows how famous Qin is.
And Cang Ding said to Cang Sang: "These people can see that we are not from the Central Plains."
Cangsang smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't matter, we can buy you another piece of clothes from the Central Plains."
Not long after, Cang Ding had already put on new clothes.
But he always felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Because my figure is so special. Moreover, his speech and behavior all bear the characteristics of Dongyi people. I am afraid that he will be recognized as soon as he goes out.
So, that night, he thought about it and couldn't sleep.
It wasn't until dawn that Cang Ding finally thought of a good idea.
He got up, hugged his clothes, and hurried to the street, where he found a gentleman who wrote letters home.
He said to him: "Thank you, help me write a few words on my clothes."
The gentleman asked: "Which words should I write?"
Cang Ding said: "Just write... I am not from the Dongyi tribe."
The gentleman was stunned: "Aren't you from the Dongyi tribe? I think you look very similar."
Cang Ding thought to himself: Sure enough, you can tell by looking at my face, so these words must be written, otherwise, wouldn't my people be in danger?
